The ship's motto does not mean to catch a sleeping weasel.

Indeed. Which is why I've corrected it. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 02:52, 12 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

And I've corrected your correction: Si dormiam capiar; "If I sleep, I may be caught". Shem (talk) 15:30, 12 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
